Researchers from Zhuhai Grit Biotechnology Co. Ltd. recently presented preclinical characterization of a new genetically modified tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) product, GT-216, being developed for the treatment of solid tumors.
Researchers from Biocytogen Pharmaceuticals (Beijing) Co. Ltd. presented the development of a humanized VEGFA model (B-hVEGFA mice) as a new tool for in vivo testing of VEGFA-targeting therapeutics.
Using its artificial intelligence/machine learning platform, Aurigen, Auron Therapeutics Inc. has identified histone acetyltransferase KAT2A/B as a driver of tumor cell plasticity and designed new small-molecule degraders of KAT2A/B.
Dysfunction of the complement system plays an important role in the pathogenesis of renal diseases. Complement inhibitors, such as C5 inhibitors, have shown efficacy in clinical trials, but may not be sufficient to block disease progression as monotherapy.
Despite GTPase KRAS being the most common mutated oncogene in human cancers, there is still an unmet medical need for treating KRAS G12C-mutated cancers.
Unknown etiology is commonly encountered in the kidney pre-transplant routine program. A screening program was performed to detect patients and study recipients that meet the following features: hypertension with no clear etiology and biopsies that do not match with clinical features of classical glomerulopathies.
Researchers from Astrazeneca plc reported preclinical data for AZD-8421, a selective cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibitor, currently being evaluated in early-phase clinical trials as a treatment for solid tumors.
The leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor B2 (LILRB2), also known as ILT4, is an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM)-containing receptor that is widely expressed on immunosuppressive myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment.
Mutations in GTPase KRAS occur in about 25% of human cancers, with the KRAS G12V mutation being one of the most frequent variants, and lead to activation of the MAPK pathway, thus promoting tumorigenesis.
Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder characterized by abnormal functioning of the glomerular filtration barrier, and is frequently caused by focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). At the World Congress of Nephrology meeting this week, researchers presented a case report of a 32-year-old female patient with nephrotic syndrome caused by FSGS diagnosed when she was 27.
